Every year;in the spring;they have what is called"Black Fly season."It usually lasts for about 2wks.They are annoying as hell;
especialy;if you have your hands full and can't slap them without
knocking yourself out.They get in your eyes,go up your nose,get in your ears,etc.I imagine thats like what you have there. Irish
